# sqlc Type-Safe SQL Code Generator

sqlc is a SQL compiler that generates type-safe Go, Python, Kotlin, and TypeScript code from plain SQL queries. You write SQL, run sqlc, and get fully typed data access functions with compile-time safety — no ORM, no reflection, no runtime query building.

## Installation

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- [sqlc-gen-python](https://github.com/sqlc-dev/sqlc-gen-python)

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- You run sqlc to generate code with type-safe interfaces to those queries.
- Check out [an interactive example](https://play.sqlc.dev/) to see it in action, and the [introductory blog post](https://conroy.org/introducing-sqlc) for the motivation behind sqlc.
